Incidentally, what has happened to Sally? Conspicuous by his absence. I would have thought he'd at least come on here to provide a bit of a counterpoint to the positivity and hysteria? Hope he's okay.'"
I was expecting at this point us to be won 3 lost 4 or something and a big "Powell out campaign" so I was going to have to be in here making my usual points of:
- Powell is the right choice as coach and needs to be backed like Arteta was at Arsenal
- The current squad is nowhere near a title challenging roster and we need several more years of squad building
We're doing much better than I expected so I haven't had to make the case for Powell. I'm still sceptical that the squad strength is truly enough to challenge for trophies but you cannot argue with the results so far.
